Natural and Wool Rugs

Natural rugs provide a touch of elegance and luxury in any home. As natural materials and wool rugs are so versatile, they come in a wide variety of different colours, patterns and shapes, making it easy for you to find the right rug for your space. Whether in a living area, bedroom or kitchen, natural and wool floor rugs offer comfort, softness and style — all in one simple accessory.

Experience the many benefits of natural wool floor rugs

Wool and natural rugs have been the go-to types of rug for many aesthetically-minded homeowners. This is due to the fact that these kinds of materials offer a host of benefits which makes them a practical choice as well as a stylish one.

Wool, for instance, is a hypoallergenic fibre, making it ideal for people who are allergic to synthetic fabrics. It is also flame-resistant, stain-resistant and easier to clean. And when it comes to the benefits of wool or natural fibre visually, you can be assured that rugs made from these materials are an ideal long-term investment. Wool, for example, absorbs dye more easily; thus, it can retain the vibrancy of its colours for much longer than other fabrics.

Finally, wool and natural fibres simply feel softer and smoother to the touch than synthetic fibres.

Natural rug materials — what’s right for you?

Each fibre brings something unique to your home — whether it’s the tactile warmth of wool, the earthy texture of jute or the durability of hemp. Here’s a quick guide to help you choose the best natural rug material for your lifestyle and space:

Wool

Wool rugs are soft, insulating and naturally stain-resistant, making them perfect for living rooms, bedrooms and cosy retreat areas. They provide premium comfort underfoot, regulate temperature well and retain colour over time, making them a smart long-term investment for any interior.

Jute

With its golden, textured fibres and relaxed vibe, jute is a favourite for coastal and boho-inspired spaces. While not as soft underfoot, jute rugs are highly durable, working well in casual areas like sunrooms and living zones. They’re biodegradable and bring a raw, grounded look to any room.

Cotton

Cotton rugs are lightweight, soft and easy to maintain. These natural rugs are great for low-traffic zones, children’s rooms or seasonal updates. They tend to be more colourful and flexible in design and are often used for layering or quick interior refreshes.

Blended fibres

Some of the most versatile rugs in our collection are made from a mix of natural materials. These blends — like wool and jute or cotton and hemp — offer the best of both worlds. For example, a wool-jute blend gives you softness underfoot with a rustic, textural finish, while a cotton-hemp blend adds flexibility and strength. Blended natural rugs are a great choice if you want the benefits of multiple fibres in one cohesive design.

Styling with natural and wool rugs

There’s no single way to style a natural or wool rug — that’s what makes them so versatile. In traditional homes, richly coloured wool rugs bring a sense of luxury and softness. In minimalist spaces, a large neutral jute rug anchors the room without overwhelming it. You can also try layering a wool rug over a flat-woven jute base to create a dynamic mix of texture and tone.

Use wool rugs in bedrooms for added comfort underfoot or place a natural outdoor rug in your alfresco area to visually extend your interior style outside. For open-plan living, rugs can also help define zones without using walls or screens. Need help choosing the right size, shape or fibre?

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of having a natural or wool rug over synthetic rugs?

One of the main benefits of natural and wool rugs is that they are more hardwearing than synthetic rugs. A rug can be a significant investment, particularly if you choose a high-quality product — and a natural rug is something you can continue to enjoy for many years.

As natural rugs are more durable, they are suitable for every room in the home, including high-traffic areas such as the kitchen. Many natural rugs can even be used outdoors, as they are made from natural materials that can withstand the Australian climate.

For whom are natural or wool rugs best suited?

Anyone can enjoy a natural or wool rug! They are ideal for those wanting to bring some personality into their homes while maintaining an elegant feel. They are also the best products for those who care about the environment — natural wool rugs are sustainable and have a much smaller carbon footprint than synthetic products. However, you need to consider your budget as natural rugs tend to be more expensive than synthetic ones.

What’s the difference between hand-woven and machine-made wool rugs?

Hand-woven wool rugs have more character, unique texture and intricate detail. They also often come at a higher price point because of the amount of labour that goes into each piece. Machine-made wool rugs are more uniform in appearance. While more affordable, they still offer excellent durability and comfort.

Are natural rugs safe for homes with pets and children?

Yes. Natural rugs, especially wool rugs, are hypoallergenic and free from harmful chemicals. Their soft textures and natural fibres are gentle underfoot, and many are durable enough to withstand daily activity from kids and pets.

How do I choose the best natural or wool rug for my space?

You need to decide on the size, colour and style of rug you want. We offer different natural rug designs to suit modern and traditional homes, as well as a selection of natural shag rugs for the ultimate softness underfoot. There’s no need to stick to the same type of rug throughout the home — you can mix and match in different spaces.

We deliver natural and wool rugs Australia-wide. Shop natural and wool rugs online today, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if you would like more information.

How do you clean natural fibre or wool rugs?

The best way to ensure your natural fibre or wool rugs are in the best condition is to vacuum them at least once a week. If there are any spills or stains, act quickly by using a clean rag or paper towel to blot them up. Do not rub or scrub at the spill or stain as this might spread it and only embed it into the fibres further.

We do not recommend using steam, hot water, or abrasive cleaning products to clean your natural rugs. The molecules that make up the fibres of the rug might disintegrate, causing it to wear and tear.

What are the pros and cons of using a wool rug?

Pros:

  • Wool rugs are durable and can last for decades with proper care.
  • Wool fibres are naturally stain-resistant and easy to clean.
  • Wool rugs are soft and comfortable underfoot, making them great for living spaces.
  • Wool is a renewable resource and biodegradable, making it an eco-friendly choice.

Cons:

  • Wool rugs tend to be more expensive than synthetic options.
  • They can shed in the beginning, which may require frequent vacuuming.

Wool rugs can be more difficult to clean if not properly cared for.

Do natural fibre rugs shed or fray?

Some natural rugs, like wool, may shed slightly at first, but this will decrease over time. Natural jute rugs can also fray when placed in high-wear zones without proper care. Using a rug pad and rotating regularly helps extend the life of your rug.

How do you choose the right size wool rug for a room?

When choosing a wool rug size for a room, it's important to consider the layout and furniture placement. Here are some general tips:

  • In a living room, the rug should be large enough to fit under all the furniture, or at least the front legs of the furniture.
  • In a dining room, the rug should be large enough to fit the table and chairs, with enough space to pull out the chairs without catching the rug.
  • In a bedroom, a rug can be placed under the bed with enough space on the sides and foot of the bed.

Can a wool rug be used in high-traffic areas?

Yes, wool rugs can be used in high-traffic areas as they are durable and can handle wear and tear. However, it's important to choose a rug with a high knot count and to rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear.

How do you clean and maintain a wool rug?

To clean and maintain a wool rug, follow these steps:

  • Vacuum the rug regularly to remove dirt and dust.
  • Rotate the rug periodically to ensure even wear.
  • Blot spills immediately with a clean cloth and mild detergent.
  • Have the rug professionally cleaned every 1–2 years to remove deep-set dirt.

Can I use an underlay or rug pad with natural rugs?

Absolutely. Rug underlays are recommended for all natural and wool rugs. They help reduce slipping, protect your floors and minimise wear by reducing friction between the rug and hard surfaces.
